A YourNews blog from Israel

Several weeks ago, Marilyn Forman Chandler, executive director of the Greensboro Jewish Federation, contacted me about the possibility of someone on this year's Interfaith Mission trip to Israel sending occasional columns for publication.

We could look at that, I said. We could also put everything they wrote online with comments enabled so that a blog-like conversation could occur.

So it is.

Jan Capps and Jill Wilson have agreed to file columns from Israel and to respond to comments as they are able. Forty-four people from Greensboro of three faiths -- Judaism, Christianity and Islam -- left on Sunday. The trip is a spiritual journey that results in a deeper appreciation of other religions and a closer community connection.

Visit and give them some feedback. I think they are there for about two weeks.
